Auburn.II aired Beauties.

There are several types of this au-
burnhaired beauty, and when a man
meets any Que Of them he is a precious
fool to waste his time looking after
white horses. One type has hair Of
deep moulderirg auburn, and tropical
eyes, sometimes with deep orange eyes
that have a redish light in them, dam
gerous at times, but generally shining
and amber-like. Her complexion is
alabaster dotted with an occasional freck
le. She is not tall and she is Tot short
and with that iullness Of form which
the French call embonpoin Ancient
Egyptian blondes were Of this style,
and Cleopatra was the embodied tybe of
them. The trcsses of Il second type are
less lurid in hue and accompany blue
eyes and Parian complexion, beneath
which blush seems always shoulder
ing. She is tall and slender, with q
Greek face and that wavy movement i'll
walking which the ancents associated
with divinity. Then there is another
type, the highest of all. Her gossamer
hair Is like sheaves Of gathered sunbeam
but in the shadow it has the rwarthi-
ness of sold bronze, She has the pyri-
form face of Dante's Beatrice, with gray
eyes that H!ate sometimes to velvetry
bluckness, and her ears are two pink
shells. Her skin is like satin and he?
c7mplection roses and lilies. Her every
aspect indicates intellect, temper and
spirit, ard let no unthinking swain i'm
agine lie can hirt with her with impu-
nity. She will make foo! af tho most
experienced Of men. No rosebud
mouth is hers, but one in which beauty
and decision meet and she more highly
values an intellectual triumph than the
alulation OF a hundred admirers.--
Some of the young fello vs. afraid Of her
particularly Of .her. wi. and skill at re-
pratee, but those who do bend at her
shrine are amply repaid. She says
good things herself ard flatters her adj
mirers into sa;ing good things. Thu
prosperity of many a jest of her male
deyotee lies in.her ready emendation of
it. This beauty becomes the sweetest
and trues Of wives when her master
comes, but woe to the drunkard who
thinks he can play Petruchio to her
! Katharine.

A Convenience For LOvcrs.-

Some ardent lover, or the champion
of asdent lovers at least thinks that the
day of love latcers accessible to parents
and shy old guardians throughthe good
Offices OF the steam kettle should be
brought to an end. With this end in
view special envelope has been pat
ented, specimen whereof Brentano
was showing the other day. 1t is made
Of leather and secured at the back
where rrthe seal or mucilage usualy
serves, by tiny paddock. Enough OF
the leather is ont out in front to give
space to a carl wheron the address
may be written. This envelope, which
can be forwarded for a two cent posta5e
stamp can be kept going backward and
toward between lovers, eech holding a
key to it without danger of the contents
being inspected, exsept the envelope be
so destroyed as to betray the facl that 1t
hsa been tampered with.

The Number Of The Stars.

Some astronomers have devoted spe-
cial attention to counting the numbers
of stars which may be seen with the
naked eye. and the result has deem that
even to persons gitten with more than
ordinary powers Of vision, there are
not so many as 900 stars at any time
visible above the herlzon. But a very
different result presents itself when the
heavens are surveyed through tees-
cope. Countless mum mbcrs Of stars then
come into view winch were previously
invisible, and The more powerful the
telercope used the greater the number
Of stars revealed to observation, until
finally the conclusion is arrived at that
the number Of stars. visible in the hcav-
ems is limited only by the optical capac-
ity of the instrument which the obsey-
er may employe on his survey. A fam
iliar.illuctratiou Of this is furnished by
the well known group of stars known
as the Pleiades. Surveyed with the ma
ked eye, this interesting object is seen
to consist of only some SIX or seven stars
but when observed with an ordinary
opera glass the entire field of view IS
filled with beautiful congeries of dis
tant stars. The great astronomer, Sir
William Herschel, who far surpassed
other astronomers in profundity OF his
explorations Of the stellar h'avens, has
left upon record some striking results
of his observations illustrative Of the
immense multitude Of stars which a
powerful telescope is capable of reveal
ing. 1t may be proper to remark that
when the stars are surveyed even with
a telescope of modern capacity they are
seen travelling In quick succession thro
the field of the instrument, an optical
illusion attributable to the diurnal rev.
olution of the earth upon its axis.
Herscheil, while engaged in survey
ing some regions of the Milky Way.
found that in the short interval of a
quarter of an hour as many as llC,
900 stars passed through the field ofh
telescope On another occasion he es.
timated that in Al minutes there pass
ed in review before him the immense
of 258,00O stars.

The Longevity OF Birds.

The human race ls not the only one
that has the privilege of furnishing
centenarians. There are several birds
that have the pretention to easily reach
the age that M. Chevreul, the French
chemists, has attalned-10l years.
Among the candidates for the prize
of longevitp, says the Paras .E(eveur,
must be cited the eagle, the swan, and
the raven, which live for over centu-
ry. The parroquet as we'll as the heron
is conteut to become a sexagenarlan.
The sparrowhawk lives to the age OF
forty, which is the age likewise reach
ed by the duck and pelican. The pea
fowl liyes to be twenty-five, the black.
headed warbler fifteen. the blackbird
twelve the canary bird twenty-four the
pheasant fifteen, the rush ten, the do

EsrwisA and Bees.

Bears are like human beings in res
pect to their love honey. Their de-
light at finding colony of the small
+ insects in the hollow trunk of tree is
no less than that of the Indians, al.
though frequently they do not fare SC
we'll as the latter in their efforts to ap.
propriate the sweets. Their clumsiness
and uncontrolled desires OCCASIONALLY
lead them into a trap, from which they
escape with cifliculty, and sometimes
not at all. When hive of beee is dis,
covered by one Of the shaggy monsters
the question of reachin the honey as
soon possible absorbs every other con-
sideration. The tree is surveyed from
different standpoints, from the ground
and from the branch, until the sent OF
honey has reused all the latent passions
of the hungry beast. Then, if an ordl-
nary hole can be discovered in the tree
trunk, Bruin begins to way into it, un-
mindful of the consequences of his rash
act aLd the wild humming Of the bees.
The thought of the reward waiting for
him as soon as the honeycomb is reach
ed urges him on, and his body is soon
slueezed down to half its origigional
SIZE.
The rotten interior of the. tree is torn
to ahreds by the sharp claws of the
trenzied beast, and large geway
is made for his body. When half III
the tree he manages to reach the home
of the little bees, wnere despera e
fight begins. The little insects fly in
his face and sting him repeatedly, but
do not drive him away. Buzzlng into
his shagky coat they soon get their legs
and wings so entanglcd that they are
unable to escape, until the stolen honey
is smea,c cl over them, and they become
iuextricably imprisoned.
The process Of eating the honey after
! it is reached is worry simple and easy
for Bruin. He merely scoops it up into
his paws and Grams it into his mouth
as rapidly as his digestive organs will
permit. After Cutting himself thor
oughly, he then begins to feel for the
/ first time the uucomtOrtablencss of his
cramped position, Probably the guam
tity,of honey which he has swallowed
/ has something to do in making the hol.
| ow Of the tree seem smaller than he I'M
Led. at any rate, he finds on trying
to back out that he cannot move with
ont causing himself pain. A sitting
sensation comes over him and he begins
to struggle desperately, like smodher
man. The result IN these violent strug
giles ends differently in different cases
Sometimes Druin escapes without Other
injuries than few scratches; but coca
siona|y he finds a living tomb in the
treee, and he pays for his stolen sweet
with his own life. Hunter have found
the carcassel of bears quite frequently
thus impriaoned in the hollow trunk
OF trees where they had been been feast
ing on the honey. Tie bees are in th
way reyenged on thor enemies for tn
obstruction of their dearly bough
homes.
